This is more a question for other second time brides. Is anyone else getting negativity from their families for having an actual wedding the second time around? When I told my dad I was getting...

Is it good to have marriage counseling. My fiance says he doesn't need it but I think it wouldn't hurt so any ideas?

Am i being immature?
Gtiara420, on May 17, 2022 at 7:23 AM

Me and my fiancé argue a lot because when he gets upset about something he also drags me into his problem. Example … if he gets upset about someone at work he will rant about what that person did and...

My "future kids"
Kelly, on May 5, 2022 at 12:53 PM
